He is Peter Parker... in a way.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14680465389483151500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003345269984484749.post-6795699257469702842014-06-15T11:41:07.928-04:002014-06-15T11:41:07.928-04:00Though I never had the privilege of seeing this in...Though I never had the privilege of seeing this in the cinema when it first came out (I can't have been more than twelve months old) I still regard it as a game changer in the action genre. In John McClane we have a relatable everyman action hero who feels pain when he gets hurt and gets by more on wit and determination than superhuman strength. He feels like just an everyday guy (though a particularly tenacious and touch one) put into the context of an action movie situation and that's an awesome thing to behold. Another fantastic review of a classic movie Doc!<br /><br />- DavidDavidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10352788983711995929noreply@blogger.com
